Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in slot 213 lands the Cowboys a B+, Dixon and all.

The Cowboys spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Johnny Dixon, the No. 181 name on the board, in pick No. 213. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

Kenny Clark gives the group a proven body among the projects. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 24 they get a double-digit-sack hope at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick No. 58 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 24: Jaylen Wright for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick 173 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick213 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at slot 213 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
They read the board right and Garret Greenfield was the payoff at the 231st overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick242 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
